"First appearing in World's Finest Comics #3 (Fall 1941), the Scarecrow is Dr. Jonathan Crane, a professor of psychology and expert in the psychology of fear, who turns to crime after being fired due to his eccentric behavior and appearance. His modus operandi is the adoption of a Scarecrow persona, used to threaten his victims into doing whatever he wants."
Detective Comics #73 (1948)
Scarecrow's 2nd Appearance
"Although
he made only two appearances in the Golden Age of Comic Books, the character was
eventually revived during the Silver Age of Comic Books by writer Gardner Fox
and artist Sheldon Moldoff in the pages of Batman #189 (Feb 1967) and has since
become a staple Batman villain."

"The
Scarecrow uses a variety of toxins that cause his victims to hallucinate that
their phobias have come to life. He wears his Scarecrow mask to enhance the effect
of the hallucinogen (instilling fear in all who see him) as well as to avoid being
poisoned by his own toxin. Although physically unintimidating, Scarecrow can resort
to physical combat, using a style called "violent dancing", based partly on the
crane style of kung fu and on drunken boxing."

This model is a repaint combining
elements from some of my other models and new props and art. It was put together
by John-Paul Cote. He came out quite nicely and I'm glad to add this model
to the other offerings here. I hope you enjoy assembling this fearsome foe! | |
| Happy
Modeling!! The Professor. | ||
